Answer:

525.6 ft^3 based on a Height of 9 ft

Explanation:

Given data

Area of Base= 58.4 ft^2

The expression for the volume of a rectangular tank is given as

Volume= L*W*H

Volume= Area*Height

Although the question was not specific about the height, it is important that we have the height to get the volume

Say the height is 9 ft

Hence the volume is

V= 6*58.4*9

V= 525.6 ft^3
